When we issue a PUT, we initialize and fill a strbuf embedded in the
transfer_request struct. But we never release this buffer, causing a
leak.
We can fix this by adding a strbuf_release() call to release_request().
If we stopped there, then non-PUT requests would try to release a
zero-initialized strbuf. This works OK in practice, but we should try to
follow the strbuf API more closely. So instead, we'll always initialize
the strbuf when we create the transfer_request struct.
That in turn means switching the strbuf_init() call in start_put() to a
simple strbuf_grow().
This leak is triggered in t5540.
